Programme

DCourse description: The history of our language can also be read and studied using the grammars that, over time, have described and codified it and which mirror the particular historical moments in which they were written. The module deals with the birth of Italian grammar and its evolution in diachrony focusing on the main temporal junctions and the most important works: from the 15th century Grammatichetta of the Tuscan language by Leon Battista Alberti to the major grammars of our day.
